These areas include but are not limited to the use of: SVMs, log-linear models, neural networks, kernel methods, discriminative transforms, large margin training, discriminative training, active, semi-supervised & unsupervised training, structured prediction, Bayesian modeling, deep learning , and sparse representations. Application areas include natural language processing, speech recognition, language modeling, and speaker verification.
